How to stop Control panel hijacking subdomain:8443 requests

Yorkie

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have Plesk 11.09 running on a centos server and a separate tomcat installation. Everything seems to work fine but I need a subdomain:8443 to be handled by tomcat and not be intercepted and transferred to the Plesk control panel. How can I stop this behaviour? Can it be done in a vhosts file without having to change the default port of the control panel? The control panel could still be accessed using a different domain name.

Thanks for any advise

Dave
 
Do you understand how binding to network ports works? Basically you can't have two different services with the same port-address combination. So you probably would have to switch either tomcat or Panel to another port.
 
Hi Nikolay,

Thanks for the quick reply. I hadn't realised that the bind was at server IP level rather than domain. I guess I will have to change the Plesk port assignment as the Tomcat use of the port is outside of my control.

Many thanks

Dave
